This Week in Popculture’s Cube: Standard Rotation – Out with the Old…

With Khans of Tarkir releasing this month, one of the major events of each Magic Year takes place: the Standard Rotation. Like the Long Count undertaken by the ancient Mayans, which predicted the passing away of the Old World, the Standard Rotation includes the passing away of an old block and core set, while a new block begins.

This time around, the mega-popular Return to Ravnica block, as well as the M14 Core Set, are rotating out of standard play and into oblivion (or modern, as the case may be).
